UC Berkeley scientists warn that 75% of all life forms might go extinct in the next 300 years


[From the article] More than 75% of current life forms on Earth might go the way of dinosaurs and woolly mammoths within the next few centuries, according to UC Berkeley scientists.
In a study published Wednesday in the journal Nature, researchers found that if efforts are not made to conserve species that are in danger of becoming extinct, a mass extinction - meaning a loss of at least 75 percent of species - could occur in just 300 years.
